A planned two-day strike by ground handling staff at some airports in England in the run up to Christmas Day has been suspended.
Members of the Unite union working for the firm dnata at Heathrow, Gatwick and Manchester had been due to walk out tomorrow.
But they will now be balloted after a new pay offer was made.
Unite regional officer Kevin Hall said: “Unite is pleased to confirm that strike action has been suspended following a revised offer which better reflects the contribution our members make to the company.
“All of this could have been avoided if the company hadn’t refused requests to negotiate and go to Acas a number of weeks ago.
“We will now be putting the details of the revised pay offer to our members over the coming weeks.”
